Abstract

A gas pressure reducer comprising at least one gas expansion device (4,1) for allowing the gas to expand and thereby reduce in pressure, and at least one means (20,22,24,34) for raising the temperature of the gas in the vicinity of the gas expansion device and wherein the means for raising the temperature of the gas comprises a liquid or solid fuel heater or a liquid fuelled engine (34).
